To-day's Nightmare - a story of a modern career lady who is so busy with her life that she has little time to tend to the daily "chores". She has clumsily dropped an egg whilst unpacking groceries, burnt the pie and her sink is filled with dishes from the night before! Yesteryear's Dream - a story of a Victorian era where a lady has enough time to bake a homely pie in a tidy cosy kitchen.

It looks bustling in here with a lot of traffic. Dirty dishes still unwashed, unpacked groceries into a already packed fridge and a pie burning in the oven and butter spilling over the top of a jug in the microwave. What could go more awry than this scene!

A bag of groceries is being unpacked.There is hardly any room for any more products.

Those green bananas are going to take awhile to get ripened. I guess the handiwrap was left on top during the haste of storing the leftovers from the meal!

Yummy! Turkey for the week end meal and jello for desert.

The box of eggs somehow slid off the rack as it was placed so close to the the edge of it. Good thing only one landed on the floor.

I has been a pretty hectic day for this career lady. She has just placed her bag of groceries , case of beer and her briefcase on the floor whilst she trying to cook the evening dinner before her family arrives home.

Oh dear, nothing worse than greasy butter overflow in the microwave especially before heating the frozen T.V. tray dinner

There goes dessert....burnt apple pie . Smoke is bellowing out the open oven door.
